A condensed, upright sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly bulging curves that give counters a superelliptical feel. Strokes show subtle, hand-drawn irregularity and mild tapering, with blunt terminals and occasional wobble that reads like ink or marker rather than rigid geometry. Uppercase forms are tall and narrow with simplified structure, while lowercase stays compact with a straightforward, single-storey sensibility where applicable; overall spacing is moderate, producing a tight, vertical rhythm.
Best suited to short text where personality matters: headlines, posters, packaging callouts, café/retail signage, and book or album covers. In longer passages it will read as stylized and expressive, making it more effective for pull quotes, subheads, or compact display settings than for dense body copy.
The font conveys a casual, human tone—whimsical and slightly rustic, like hand-lettered signage or a playful editorial headline. Its narrow stance and soft curves keep it friendly, while the uneven stroke character adds charm and approachability rather than precision.
The design appears intended to blend a clean sans skeleton with an intentionally handmade finish, delivering a narrow, space-saving display voice that still feels warm and approachable. Its rounded-rectangle geometry provides coherence, while the organic stroke variation adds a crafted, analog character.
Round letters (like O, C, G) appear subtly squarish with rounded corners, reinforcing the superellipse impression. Numerals follow the same condensed, hand-inked logic, keeping the overall texture consistent across text and display sizes.
